Disputing the outcome of the 2020 presidential election continues to play a major role in GOP politics. This begs the question: how have election disputes been handled in our history? Are we progressing at election dispute resolution in the march of our history? Or are we regressing? Intertwined with those questions is the quagmire of election disputes themselves. Has our Constitution created a working system for us? This one is a trick question for two reasons. First, our electoral college system now is not the same one that our founders envisaged. Second, the election system that we think we have is not what we actually have in practice. In one particular aspect, our founders wanted majority winners in our elections, specifically with respect to presidential elections. But under our current system, a candidate can win the White House with a minority of the national and state popular votes. My guest, Professor Edward Foley, analyzes all of this for us, gives us models from history on how election disputes should be resolved, and then shares anecdotes of election-related violence, and one frightening election that almost caused a second civil war. Professor Foley is the author of Presidential Elections and Majority Rule, and also Ballot Battles: The History of Disputed Elections in the United States, which was named a Finalist for the David J. Langum Prize in American Legal History and listed as one of 100 “must-read books about law and social justice”. He holds the Ebersold Chair in Constitutional Law at The Ohio State University, where he also directs its election law program. He is a contributing opinion columnist for the Washington Post, and for the 2020 election season, he served as an NBC News election law analyst. And here is the link to my conversation with Daniel Okrent about Prohibition and the 1920 census (S2E24), which I also discuss in this podcast episode.

Join Chris Thompson as she takes a story-teller's view of the old Irish stories. Who told the and why were they so memorable. In this audio article, Chris celebrates the old stories and explores the challenges in telling them today. For those who have asked me for ideas and advice on story telling generally, I am going to be devoting a section of my upcoming Patreon site 'Sinann's Well' to this subject. References and Links Oral Tradition Theory While there are a great many experts who can illuminate this eclectic discipline. I have found the writing of John Miles Foley comprehensive and enjoyably helpful. I also appreciate the manner in which he takes account of the revitalizing effect of the internet on oral story telling. Professor Foley was the founder of the academic journal Oral Tradition and the Center for Studies in Oral Tradition at the University of Missouri, where he was Curators' Professor of Classical Studies and English . I have added a link to the UK Amazon page listing a few a selection of his works but they tend to be somewhat difficult to find. Our American listeners, I suspect, would have less of a problem. His books do offer a comprehensive and modern approach to Oral Tradition Theory. For those of you who enjoy audio books.I would highly recommend, The Modern Scholar: Singers and Tales: Oral Tradition and the Roots of Literature By: Professor Michael D. C. Drout. Miichael Drout, who studied under Professor Foley, Professor of English and Director of the Center for the Study of the Medieval at . He is an author and specialising in Anglo Saxon, medieval literature, fantasy and science fiction. This is an enjoyable and easy-to-follow introduction to the history and development of Oral Tradition Theory and offers a fascinating insight into how story telling functions within diverse societies. I listen to the book over and over again, just because I enjoy it. It is not too long, either. Other links The Ark before Noah by Irving Finkel Nothing to do with Oral Tradition theory, or, indeed, with the early Irish tales, I am still going to recommend this book in connection with the current topic. This tells how a story, now known, only from the careful translation of long-lost Cuneiform clay tablets, has continued to retain so much information,. Irving Finkel, does not just plot the meandering, ever changing and adapting, course of a story, still known and loved today, but he throws a fascinating light on the world where this story may have been first told. He even identifies performative elements, still recognisable. I love this book. Music: The Wandering Harper by Gian Costello

This Federalist Society Faculty Book Podcast features Professor Elizabeth Price Foley’s new book, The Tea Party: Three Principles. -- As Publisher Cambridge University Press states: "In The Tea Party: Three Principles, constitutional law professor Elizabeth Price Foley takes on the mainstream media's characterization of the American Tea Party movement, asserting that it has been distorted in a way that prevents meaningful political dialogue and may even be dangerous for America's future. Foley sees the Tea Party as a movement of principles over politics. She identifies three "core principles" of American constitutional law that bind the decentralized, wide-ranging movement: limited government, unapologetic U.S. sovereignty, and constitutional originalism. These three principles, Foley explains, both define the Tea Party movement and predict its effect on the American political landscape. Foley explains the three principles' significance to the American founding and constitutional structure. She then connects the principles to current issues as health care reform, illegal immigration, the war on terror, and internationalism." -- Professor Foley, a Professor of Law at Florida International University School of Law, is joined by critical commenter Jared Goldstein, a Professor at Roger Williams University School of Law, to discuss the book.

According to reports, Walker-Hoover was repeatedly taunted for “being gay.” The next two months we will have our Back-to-School Series: All You Need to Know.
